warren t claim Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Plenty of notable crimes in our history have involved shite. Peter Sutcliffe was a true shiter, not just with his Rover P6 but a string of Corsairs. Lord Lucan also used a Corsair to flee from the scene of his alleged nanny murder. Princess Grace of Monaco met her end in a Rover P6. The Mercedes S Class will always be associated with the 1997 Diana Princess of Wales fatal accident. Any others?

Shep Shepherd Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Sutcliffe also had a black Sunbeam Rapier and a green Mk1 Capri. He drove a Ford Transcontinental truck in his job, too. From the news reports of the time, I recall that a red Mk1 Cavalier and a silver Renault 18 got caught up in the Lockerbie bombing, as they were being driven on the A74 when parts of Pan-Am flight 103 hit Sherwood Crescent in the town, which was next to the road. Apparently, their occupants survived without serious injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lufthansa-Terminal Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 On Saturday, 21 March 1981, Mike Hailwood set off in his Rover SD1 with his children Michelle and David to collect some fish and chips. As they returned along the A435 Alcester Road through Portway Warwickshire near their home in Tanworth-in-Arden, a truck made an illegal turn through the barriers into the central reservation, and their car hit it. Michelle, aged nine, was killed instantly; Mike and David were taken to hospital, where Mike died two days later, aged 40. David survived. The truck driver was fined £100. warren t claim and Eyersey1234 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
